Well, $job->{'att'}->{'attributename'} actually breaks the encapsulation. The proper way would be $job->att( 'attributename'). Which of course begs the question: Have you ever tried perldoc XML::Twig? ;--) (or looking at the XML::Twig Quick Reference?)

I can't really blame you though, I tend to do the same thing: when I start working with a module, I use the debugger to figure out its implementation, and often "forget" to read the API.

I read it a thousand times or more. Not from top to bottom, but using /searchword and then reading. I actually never read anything about $job->att('attributename') and was always asking myself, why I had to use a hash here. I never had the idea to search further. Thanks for pointing me at it!

I tried this method but still have no results :(

Though,I'm sure that I should get some ....
Is there something wrong with my code?

use strict;
use XML::Twig;

my $t= new XML::Twig();
my $root = $t->root;
$t->parsefile( 'T:\\BI\\Jerome\\xml\\tree.xml');
exit;

sub job
  { my ($t, $root)= @_;
    my %job;
    $job{Attr_name}= $root->{'att'}->{'Name'};
    $job{Attr_value}= $root->{'att'}->{'Value'};
    print "$job{Attr_name}: $job{Attr_value}\n";
    $root->delete;
  }

OK, thanks for the clue!

I can't swear I already used this method but it seems familiar to me....

Though, I know the perloc -f command but the twig one seems too much complex for me...nobody's perfect ;)

The twig web site got some examples too, I tried to adapt these examples to my needs but with no success.

I'll try this code portion tommorrow and will keep you informed about the results.

Regards.

Jerome.
